OEM: Made by an Original Equipment Manufacturer. This part is made by an original equipment manufacturer or under their license, ensuring compatibility and quality.
Torque Converter Assembly for the automatic transmission. It forms the fluid coupling between the engine flexplate and the gearbox input shaft, transmitting drive through hydraulic fluid in place of a mechanical clutch.

Under load the converter multiplies engine torque through its impeller, turbine and stator; on lock-up it provides a direct mechanical drive to reduce slip and improve efficiency at cruising speed.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TQB000040 torque converter and what does it do?
The TQB000040 torque converter is the fluid coupling between the engine flexplate and the automatic gearbox input shaft. It transmits drive through hydraulic fluid instead of a mechanical clutch, multiplying engine torque under load and locking up for direct mechanical drive at cruising speed to reduce slip.
Why does a torque converter fail and what are the symptoms?
A torque converter typically fails through worn lock-up clutch friction material, a failed stator one-way clutch, or internal bearing wear. Symptoms usually include shudder under light throttle, slipping, overheating transmission fluid, or a change in stall speed. Left unchecked, circulating debris can damage the valve body and pump.
Is TQB000270 a direct alternative to this torque converter?
TQB000270 is listed as the cross-reference alternative for this torque converter. A cross-referenced code usually indicates a supersession or equivalent unit, so confirm your gearbox type and the original converter number before ordering to make sure the spline count and lock-up arrangement match.
